You always have the option of not paying for the game. Again, NBCUniversal can’t legally put this game over the air on its broadcast network. You can thank Congress for that.
A lot of these complaints are coming off as typical Boomer entitlement.

I haven't watched any Thursday nite games because its on Amazon. Don't have that channel and not subscribing to it same thing with Peacock. Fuk those greedy bastards.

I’d hardly classify any of this as entitlement when it’s the opposite of how it’s been done literally just about forever.

Streaming services have only been a thing for a decade and really didn’t take off until the last 5 years.
Times change. Either pay and watch, pirate and watch, or just don’t watch. Hissy fitting online won’t change anything.

Mostly everyone that watches football has been able to watch football games on ota tv.
This isn’t just some new entitlement thing where people are saying “I should be able to do this unique thing”

It is entitlement to expect everything to be free forever when it comes to a private business.

Lol. The NFL has been free to watch on tv for almost 100 years.

I probably wouldn't pay for Peacock because of the NFL. I got it for WWE so I'm glad I can get a few other things with it.

Gonna need you to check your math on that.
And explain where you got ESPN for free from.

And that’s not going away. But I don’t think you understand the larger issue with your statement yet guy.

ESPN was never really a standalone thing that you had to pay extra for, like a string service is.

$8 isn't bothering anyone. It's the fact that everywhere we turn in life, these people want a little bit more.
Amazon Prime is a great example. It started off with getting ad-free Prime Video with the subscription but now they give you ads and want another $3 to remove them....after they've gone up a ton on their annual price to begin with.

Pretty soon getting cable will be the new cut-the-cord.

No surprises that the usual idiots don’t understands that the only way the game can be aired tomorrow is on Peacock. NBC literally is not allowed to air due to Congress. But of course the “conservatives” on here will complain about free enterprise instead of the laws that our idiotic Congress enacts and enforces.

NFL and college shouldn’t be playing on Fridays anyway. Leave it for the high schools.

So if that law wasn’t in place, you believe that the game would be on NBC?
You just contradicted your “business” argument lol

Yes? Makes more sense for NBCUniversal and the NFL for it to be on NBC not Peacock.
